Ingredients
1 cup Taffer’s Browned Butter Bourbon
½ lb Shelled Walnuts
½ lb Shelled Pecans
2 cups Raw Sugar
1 bottle Vegetable or Preferred Oil
Servings
Servings: 4-6
Directions
Bring water to boil in a large pot.
Blanch the walnuts and pecans for 1-2 minutes.
Remove them and spread on a sheet pan so they can air dry.
In a separate bowl mix the Taffer’s Browned Butter Bourbon and sugar together.
Add your dried walnuts and pecans.
Ensure they are evenly coated with the sugar mixture.
Lay out on a wire rack and allow excess to drip off.
Preheat a sauce pot with at least four inches of vegetable oil or oil of preference.
Allow oil to heat up to 380°F.
Fry in small batches until most of the walnuts and pecans are floating.
In between batches, make sure the oil returns to 380°F, otherwise it will not properly fry. Walnuts and pecans should have a shine and a crisp, sweet crunch. If they do not have a crunch feel free to refry. Careful not to burn.
